Prepared microbiology media comes pre-formulated for cultivation and maintenance of various microorganisms. Products are available in various quantities and formats for a wide range of applications.
Cultivate, identify and differentiate Ureaplasma urealyticum and Mycoplasms hominis with Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Selective A-8 Agar. This selective and differential medium utilises the ability of Ureaplasma urealyticum to hydrolyze urea with the production of ammonia and resultant alkalinity.
Thermo Scientific™ Remel BiGGY Agar (Bismuth Sulfite Glucose Glycine Yeast) (Nickerson Agar) is for isolation and presumptive identification of Candida spp.
Selectively isolate Streptococcus pneumoniae from clinical specimens with Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Blood Agar with Gentamicin. The addition of 5% sheep blood enriches the medium by providing the essential growth factors and allows hemolytic rections to be observed.
Thermo Scientific™ Remel CCFA Modified Agar w/Horse Blood (with cefoxitin, cycloserine, fructose) is used for selective isolation and differentiation of Clostridium difficile.
Cultivate a wide variety of microorganisms including bacteria, yeasts, and molds with the nutritious base medium Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Blood Heart Infusion (BHI) Agar with Sheep Blood, Penicilllin, Streptomycin and Cycloheximide1.
Isolate and presumptively identify vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) from surveillance cultures with Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ Bile Esculin Azide Agar with Vancomycin. Sodium azide and 1% oxgall are inhibitory to Gram-negative bacteria other than group D streptococci.
Improve the prevention and control of VRE in healthcare settings by rapidly and reliably isolating and presumptively identifying vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) within 24 hours, direct from sample, using Thermo Scientific™ Spectra™ VRE.
Thermo Scientific™ Remel DNase Test Agar with Toluidine Blue is for the detection of deoxyribonuclease activity in microorganisms including Staphylococci, enteric gram-negative bacilli and pseudomonads.
Selectively isolate and presumptively identify Gardnerella vaginalis using Thermo Scientific™ Remel™ HBT Bilayer Medium (Human Blood-Polysorbate 80). Media used by earlier investigators to recover G. vaginalis from clinical specimens include chocolate agar, peptone starch dextrose (PSD) agar, and...
